La Jolla Cove

In mid April we decided to take a trip 1,000 miles south to San Diego California for a little warmth and sunshine. During our time there we made a trek out to the La Jolla Caves to visit the seals and pelicans that blanket the cliffs along the coastline. The caves were located close by Â high society shops and restaurants. Mercedes were the car of choice in this area. It seemed kind of strange to see society so close to the resting ground of the seals. People were swimming in and out of the bay along side of them with not even the hint of curiosity. Here are a few images from that day.

The tide was rolling in when we arrived, which added to the images with waves spraying up over the rocks, engulfing the area the seals had been sunning on earlier.

Walking through one of the arch ways in the rocks you come out in an area of rocks and tide pools. The tide began to come in when we arrived, getting a glimpse of the crabs scrambling for the last bit of sun before being over taken by the waves again.

The rocks were layered with life. Seals gathered on the areas closest to water with pelicans and other birds perched above. A pair of seagulls were flying over head in search of food in the water.
